+In my case, I prefer traditional rotated logs with rsyslog, so I do the following:
+  sudo apt install rsyslog
+  sudo nano /etc/rsyslog.d/unbound.conf
+  <if $programname == 'unbound' then /var/log/unbound/unbound.log>
+  <& stop>
+  nano /etc/logrotate.d/unbound
+In the log rotate file, enter the following:
+  /var/log/unbound/unbound.log {
+  daily
+  rotate 7
+  missingok
+  create 0640 root adm
+  postrotate
+  /usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslog-rotate
+  endscript
+  }
+Additionally, some Debian systems have resolvconf installed, so many install recipes recommend disabling that service so that it does not overwrite the DNS settings we are making here.
+  systemctl disable --now unbound-resolvconf.service
+  sed -Ei 's/^unbound_conf=/#unbound_conf=/' /etc/resolvconf.conf
+  rm /etc/unbound/unbound.conf.d/resolvconf_resolvers.conf
+To make sure logs are working properly:
+  nano /etc/apparmor.d/local/usr.sbin.unbound
+  </var/log/unbound/unbound.log rw,>
+  sudo apparmor_parser -r /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.unbound
+  sudo service apparmor restart
+  sudo mkdir -p /var/log/unbound
+  sudo touch /var/log/unbound/unbound.log
+  sudo chown unbound /var/log/unbound/unbound.log
+Enforce edns settings specified in config:
+  nano /etc/dnsmasq.d/99-edns.conf
+  <edns-packet-max=1232>
+The last step is configuring the unbound server in the pihole GUI. Alternately, you can do this without a pihole by simply specifying this address as your WAN's upstream DNS server in openWRT. Alright, and in case you don't need LAN-based DNS, but just want a public facing virtual appliance to use its own DNS, just install unbound and enter the following in ''/etc/unbound/unbound.conf'':
+  server:
+      interface: 127.0.0.1
+      cache-max-ttl: 14400
+      cache-min-ttl: 1200
+      num-threads: 4
+      msg-cache-slabs: 8
+      rrset-cache-slabs: 8
+      infra-cache-slabs: 8
+      key-cache-slabs: 8
+      rrset-cache-size: 256m
+      msg-cache-size: 128m
+      #prefetch: yes
+      harden-dnssec-stripped: yes
+      use-syslog: yes
+      aggressive-nsec: yes
+      hide-identity: yes
+      hide-version: yes
+      use-caps-for-id: yes
+      do-tcp: yes
+      do-udp: yes
+Then, just add ''nameserver 127.0.0.1'' to /etc/resolv.conf. This latter step only works on classic/minimal Debian. Use netplan properly and/or resolvconf package and the correct ''.d'' directory if not using proper DNS management.
